Modality Worklist
Server Information
If a
DICOM Worklist Server (which is part of a hospi-
tal information system) is on the imaging network, it
can be queried by the ultrasound system for a list of
patients scheduled for exams.
Patient and study demographics can then be auto-
matically downloaded from the Worklist Server into
the ultrasound system eliminating redundant data
entry.
The Cypress system queries the worklist, and then
patient demographic and procedure data is trans-
ferred into the Cypress system once the procedure
has been scheduled and data input is complete.

The DICOM stress image size can take up the full
screen or just a region of interest (ROI). To set the
size, press
SETUP, double-click DICOM, and highlight
DICOM Stress Image Size. Click the radio button to
select the size.
